RSS-based sensor localization in underwater acoustic sensor networks
No full textSince the global positioning system (GPS) is not applicable underwater, source localization using wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is gaining popularity in oceanographic applications. Unlike terrestrial WSNs (TWSNs) which uses electromagnetic signaling, underwater WSNs (UWSNs) require underwater acoustic (UWA) signaling. Received signal strength (RSS)-based source localization is considered in this paper due to its practical simplicity and the constraint of low-cost sensor devices, but this area received little attention so far because of the complicated UWA transmission loss (TL) phenomena. In this paper, we address this issue and propose two novel semidefinite programming (SDP) approaches which can be solved more efficiently. The numerical results validate our proposed SDP solvers in underwater environments, and indicate that the placement of the anchor nodes influences the RSS-based localization accuracy similarly as in the terrestrial counterpart. We also highlight that adopting traditional terrestrial RSS-based localization methods will fail in underwater scenarios.Accepted Author ManuscriptSignal Processing System

Semantic aware RSS query algebra
No full textInternational audienceExisting XML query algebras are not fully appropriate to retrieve RSS news items mainly due to three reasons: 1) RSS is text rich and its content is dependent on the wording and verbification of the author, thus semantic aware operators are needed; 2) news items are dynamic and consequently time oriented retrieval is needed; 3) a news item may evolve through time, or overlap with other news items and hence identifying relationships between items is also needed. In this paper, we aim to solve these issues by providing a dedicated RSS algebra based on semantic-aware operators that consider RSS characteristics. The provided operators are application domain specific and can be tuned according to the user preferences. We also provide a set of query rewriting and equivalence rules that would be used during query simplification and optimization. In addition and in order to validate our proposal, we present here our prototype that allows a user to formulate RSS query using our operators
RSS Berbasis JSON sebagai Alternatif Pengganti RSS Berbasis XML pada Website Agregator Berbasis AJAX
No full textABSTRAKSI: Pesatnya perkembangan teknologi Internet membuat informasi dapat dipertukarkan dengan begitu cepat. RSS lahir sebagai salah satu teknologi yang menjadikan sebuah kemudahan dalam bertukar informasi di Internet. Dengan adanya RSS , bertukar berita di Internet bahkan lebih mudah daripada berlangganan koran.RSS diciptakan dengan memanfaatkan format data XML yang sifatnya mudah untuk dipertukarkan. Seiring perkembangan waktu, lahirlah sebuah tipe data baru bernama JSON. JSON adalah sebuah alternatif dari XML. Segala yang bisa dilakukan XML bisa dilakukan JSON. JSON memiliki sebuah performansi yang menjanjikan dibanding dengan XML dikarenakan JSON memiliki ukuran yang lebih kecil dibandingkan XML.Dalam tugas akhir ini, penulis mencoba untuk menciptakan sebuah teknologi baru berbagi informasi dengan memanfaatkan format data JSON . Dalam tugas akhir ini, penulis membandingkan teknologi buatan user dengan teknologi yang sudah ada dari tiga hal yaitu kecepatan pembuatan informasi , ukuran data dan kecepatan pembacaan data. Penulis membandingkan ketiga hal tersebut dalam tugas akhir penulis.Pada akhirnya, teknologi berbagi informasi usulan penulis dalam tugas akhir ini akhirnya memiliki kelebihan dibandingkan teknologi yang sudah ada. Teknologi ini pada akhirnya layak untuk terus dikembangkan sebagai sebuah alternatif dari teknologi yang sudah ada.Kata Kunci : RSS, JSON , XML , RSS JSON, RSS XMLABSTRACT: Rapid development of Internet technology can make information exchanged with so quickly. RSS born as one of the technology that makes it easy in an exchange of information on the Internet. With RSS, to exchange news on the Internet even easier than subscribing newspapers.RSS was created using the XML data format that is easy to be. Along the time, was born a new data type called JSON. JSON is an alternative to XML. All that can be done can be done by XML, can be done by JSON too . JSON has a promising performance compared with the XML because JSON has size less than XML.In this final task, the author tries to create a new technology to share information using the JSON data format. In this final task, the author compares the technology that user-made with the technology that\u27s already there. There are 3 things that user compared , speed creation of information, data size and speed of reading data. The author compares the third case in the final task of the author.In the end, technology, information sharing which is proposed by the author of this final task ultimately have advantages compared to existing technology. This technology will eventually be eligible to continue to be developed as an alternative to existing technology.Keyword: RSS, JSON , XML , RSS JSON, RSS XML

RSS v2.0: Spamming, User Experience and Formalization
No full textRSS, once the most popular publish/subscribe system is believed to have come to an end due to reasons unexplored yet. The aim of this thesis is to examine one such reason, spamming. The context of this thesis is limited to spamming related to RSS v2.0. The study discusses RSS as a publish/subscribe system and investigates the possible reasons for the decline in the use of such a system and possible solutions to address RSS spamming. The thesis introduces RSS (being dependent on feed readers) and tries to find its relationship with spamming. In addition, the thesis tries to investigate possible socio-technical influences on spamming in RSS.
The author presents the idea of applying formalization (formal specification technique) to open standards, RSSv2.0 in particular. Formal specifications are more concise, consistent, unambiguous and highly reusable in many cases. The merging of formal specification methods and open standards allows for i) a more concrete standard design, ii) an improved understanding of the environment under design, iii) an enforced certain level of precision into the specification, and also iv) provides software engineers with extended property checking/verification capabilities. The author supports and proposes the use of formalization in RSS.
Based on the inferences gathered from the user experiment conducted during the course of this study, an analysis on the downfall of RSS is presented. However, the user experiment opens up different directions for future work in the evolution of RSS v3.0 which could be supported by formalization. The thesis concludes that RSS is on the verge of death/discontinuation due to the adverse effects of spamming and lack of its development which is evident from the limited amount of available research literature.

When ABE Meets RSS
No full textRSS (Really Simple Syndication) has been introduced as a response to the need of efficient information distribution and subscription. However, the current RSS standard does not provide privacy preservation and confidentiality protection. Independently, the emergence of ABE (Attribute-based Encryption) provides us a brand new cryptographic primitive for access control. This paper sets out to examine an unexplored area to date - how to apply ABE to RSS.http://gateway.webofknowledge.com/gateway/Gateway.cgi?GWVersion=2&SrcApp=PARTNER_APP&SrcAuth=LinksAMR&KeyUT=WOS:000280516900023&DestLinkType=FullRecord&DestApp=ALL_WOS&UsrCustomerID=8e1609b174ce4e31116a60747a720701Computer Science, Theory & MethodsEICPCI-S(ISTP)
Law Reviews, Open Metadata and RSS Feeds
No full textMost scientific publications have their metadata available as freely accessible and machine-readable information at CrossRef. However, student-edited law reviews have not followed suit with this practice. Consequently, a large part of legal research remains in a blind spot for scientometric analyses and tools. The present paper, by Andreas Nishikawa-Pacher, investigates whether the law reviews’ RSS feeds could serve as equivalent sources for open scholarly metadata. The suitability of RSS feeds from 51 student-edited law reviews (as indexed in Web of Science's Social Science Citation Index) was assessed with regards to three fictitious meta-scientific applications – namely (1) a ‘latest paper’-tool that lists the law reviews’ newest publications with links, abstracts and dates, (2) an author database and (3) a calculation of the mutual citation counts among different law reviews. This paper finds that only 21 law reviews offer functional RSS feeds, and while they were suitable for a basic ‘latest papers’-tool, due to their low metadata quality they cannot aid in generating an author database or in counting the mutual citations among law reviews. The result suggests that law reviews would be advised to adopt digital object identifiers (DOIs) and start depositing openly accessible metadata, for otherwise their scholarly impact and visibility will further decline
